It's tradition and it's fine the way it is.

This is used to justify many practices.

As I alluded to earlier, the motivation for even having the anthem in place was to drum up recruitment in the military in wartime. The "tradition" was very political in nature as it was meant to help the war effort.

Every citizen of their respective country should be Nationalistic about their country.

I'm sure North Korea heartily agrees. I can be quite sure of that because I'm aware of there being consequences otherwise.

Or to use a less drastic approach: it's my opinion that countries should act in a way that motivates their citizens to respect them, not have those in power demand that respect through ceremony.
